Tremont is early with dogwood blossoms opening - not gonna be a great year - estimate 2/3 gone straight to leaf with most old favorite scenes sub par - go find some new classics I guess - too much to hope for 2 bang up years in a row

Little River has peak redbuds and a few dogwoods - sarvis are at peak along the river in spots only

wakerobin look good very fresh

hope this helps - didnt have a lot of time to scout further

Thanks for the info Nye, I'm going to ride down tommorow and Sunday and look around a bit, probably hike some along Porters Creek, then come back down in a couple weeks when everyone else is :biggrin:

Nye,

Thanks for the bad news :frown: Sadly, I even just purchased a used LF lens so I could get the shot I missed out on last year. I'll keep my fingers crossed til my dates get closer and then decide from there.

Thanks again
